Oh those tail wheel airplanes. How they love to swing and sway their rear ends on the runway especially in crosswinds. Sounds like an ad for a burlesque show only these rear ends can throw you for a loop, a ground loop to be precise, if allowed to swing too much. Gotta pay attention to their noses and be quick on the rudders with happy feet to correct any deviations from straight ahead. Steerable tail wheels help when in 3-point whence the magnitude of rudder inputs can be reduced lest an over control, directional PIO, induces an unnecessary ground loop.
